YS TYPES OF YACHTS

Whether you're a fishing enthusiast or just love spending family time on the open water, you'll want to invest in the type of yacht that best fits your preferences and priorities. From sleek sport cruisers and motor yachts to trawlers and walkarounds, Yachting Solutions offers a range of vessels that cater to our customer's needs and lifestyles.

Feeling a little lost at sea? We've compiled a list of popular yacht types to help you navigate the differences among these luxury vessels:

Cabin cruisers offer sleeping berths and a compact galley to make weekend excursions more comfortable. Small cabin cruisers have room for up to six passengers, while larger yachts offer staterooms to accommodate 12 or more guests.
Avid anglers love this type of yacht. With the helm station in the center of the boat, this design maximizes deck space and leaves the bow and aft cockpits open, giving you 360 degrees to cast lines and net a great catch.
Capable of taking on lakes, bays, and open ocean, dual console yachts offer a starboard seat for the helm and a port-side passenger console. This yacht design allows you to walk from bow to stern, so you can indulge in a day of lounging or fishing on the deck.
Flybridge yachts elevate island tours and entertaining. With a deck set above the main bridge and a second helm, the skipper and passengers have the perfect vantage point for breathtaking views with ample space to socialize.
Dreaming of distant ports and luxurious surroundings? Motor yachts in the 40-to-90-foot range equipped with roomy private cabins, full galleys, and elite amenities provide maximum comfort and convenience on every journey.
Different hull designs for sport cruisers, like a deep vee for choppy waters or modified vee for freshwater fun, ensure the best performance for overnights and day cruising. Depending on their size, sport cruisers can accommodate 10 to 18 passengers.
Engineered for serious anglers, sport fishing yachts have a galley and sleeping berths with systems built for long-distance trips and ample speed for fast runs to prime fishing grounds. Rod holders, freezers, and fighting chairs take game fishing to a whole new level.
When slowing the pace and enjoying the ride is your goal, a trawler yacht gives you all the comforts of home for long-distance offshore voyages. Ideal for sight-seeing excursions, trawler salons feature large windows to ensure you can take in the view.
Are family fun days, fishing trips, and overnight outings at the top of your boat buying list? Walkarounds combine cabin and center console yacht types, giving you a couple of comfy berths, a small head, and a compact galley with an accessible deck for handling lines.
Understanding different types of yachts, hull designs, sizes, and features can help you narrow down your choices, so you can invest in a vessel that suits your preferences and lifestyle.

    5 STARS - Just had one of the best service experiences EVER. Hit a rock 2 days ago with our brand new Nimbus C9 and destroyed the engine lower unit. While waiting for a tow boat, called our sales rep Bob Chase, who immediately patched me through to Josh, one of their service techs. Josh had me text a picture of the lower unit and confirmed a total replacement was needed. Because I had family coming into town 4 days later, Josh rushed to call Mercury and before the tow boat even arrived he had ordered a new unit for overnight delivery. Exactly 24 hours after the tow service dropped our boat at Rockport Harbor, Josh had the new unit in and other repairs done. I met Josh and service manager Oliver, who is excellent as well, at Rockport dock the next morning. Bottom line, after significant damage, the boat was back on our mooring 48 hours after the accident! Many thanks to Oliver, Bob, and especially Josh - all 3 are top-notch marine professionals. Oh, and the Nimbus C9 is a great boat - perfect for fast, warm, and dry day trips in Down East Maine and overnight stays on the boat as well.

    We recently received our new boat and are thrilled with the experience. The process of purchasing the new boat and selling our old one was seamless, and Yachting Solutions made it an effortless journey. Their communication was impeccable, and they were always ready to answer our questions. The detailed walkthrough of our new boat provided us with a comprehensive understanding of its operations, instilling confidence in our ability to handle it. I cannot express my gratitude enough for their exceptional service and highly recommend them to anyone seeking to buy or sell a boat.

    You have quite a dream team there. I prefer to be known not as a complainer, but as one of the few customers that will actually follow through and let you know how pleased we were with all the service your folks have given us. They seem to complement each other and your business perfectly. Many Thanks for all they do and have done for us!

    The experience of evaluating, test driving and buying a boat from these guys was fun and outstanding, not to beat the experience of taking delivery and their knowledge, service and customer care. Thank you Yachting Solutions!

    We are thrilled with our new boat, a Nimbus W11 that was sold to us by Yachting Solutions. I cannot praise Yachting Solutions more highly. Bob Chase and his team gave the boat a christening not to be beat and have immediately followed up with any questions we have had subsequent to our buying the boat. Bravo, Yachting Solutions!
